Ghosts in the Consulting Room: Echoes of Trauma in Psychoanalysis
is the first of two volumes that delves into the overwhelming,
often unmetabolizable feelings related to mourning. The book uses
clinical examples of people living in a state of liminality or
ongoing melancholia. The authors reflect on the challenges of
learning to move forward and embrace life over time, while
acknowledging, witnessing and working through the emotional scars
of the past. Bringing together a collection of clinical and
theoretical papers, Ghosts in the Consulting Room features accounts
of the unpredictable effects of trauma that emerge within clinical
work, often unexpectedly, in ways that surprise both patient and
therapist. In the book, distinguished psychoanalysts examine how to
work with a variety of 'ghosts', as they manifest in transference
and countertransference, in work with children and adults, in
institutional settings and even in the very founders and
foundations of the field of psychoanalysis itself. They explore the
dilemma of how to process loss when it is unspeakable and
unknowable, often manifesting in silence or gaps in knowledge, and
living in strange relations to time and space. This book will be of
interest to psychotherapists and psychoanalysts, as well as social
workers, family therapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists. It
will appeal to those specializing in bereavement and trauma and, on
a broader level, to sociologists and historians interested in
understanding means of coping with loss and grief on both an
individual and larger scale basis.
